Chinese Chicken Salad -Sandie: A Front Porch Chef

Ingredients:

Directions:

1 or 2 cooked chicken breasts, shredded
1 can fried noodles (chinese)
1 bag Fritos, crushed
1 head lettuce,
chopped or shredded
4 stalks of green onion: chopped
2 T toasted almonds, chopped
2 T toasted sesame seeds
Dressing:
2 T sugar
1 t salt
1/2 t pepper
1 T sesame oil
3 T white vinegar
1/4 C salad oil

Put dressing ingredients in
a bottle and shake well and chill*
Meanwhile, combine salad ingredients
Remember, these proportions are flexable
I don't use a whole bag of Fritos and
I sometimes buy a bottle of dressing at "Trader Joes"
if you have one near you,
it is just about the same and wonderful
I also usually add 4 T almonds and sesame seeds
and make THREE times the amount of the dressing to keep on hand. -Sandie

I like to serv this with pita bread triangles,
just seperate them and cut in triangles and spread
a little margerine and sprinkle with
"Johnny's Salad Elegance" or other seasoning
and put under the broiler to get toasty!

*I like to marinate the cooked chicken in some of the dressing if I know I'm serving it later.
